design in general can be seen to pass through phases of relative certainty

and doubt. B. Lawson

a good architectural design process is based on the successful interplay

between unpredictable and iterative processes and actors

the architect has traditionally a central position in the design process -his work and interaction with the other participants are essential for

developing good architectural design solutions and building projects

the AEC-industry face a rapid development within the field of ICT -

both definition of processes and roles are affected -

also the architects position and working conditions are in change

AIM AND FOCUS

OVERALL AIM

to contribute to more knowledge about how ICT impact on central processes

and actors within architectural design

FOCUS

work and interactions/collaboration within the design team

special focus on the architect

WHY IMPORTANT

much research focus on technology development and improvement

but: also research about technology impact on processes and roles within

architectural design important

APPROACHrelation-/process-oriented, not technology-oriented!

RESEARCH STRATEGY

flexible design strategy (evolves during data collection)

explorative purposemainly qualitative approach

MAIN METHODOLOGICAL TOOLS

reviews of contemporary literature and research

workshops with actors from both research and practice

multiple case studies of reference and building projects

MAIN SOURCES OF EVIDENCE IN CASE STUDIES

open-ended interviews with key-actors

documentary analysis

eventually small interview- or questionnaire survey

RESEARCH BASED ON TWO PARTS..a top-down approach the starting point

OVERVIEW OF THE PHD PROJECTS TWO MAIN PARTS

PART 1 PART 2

APPROACH

broad scope

AIM

contribute to better understanding and

overview of how ICT impact on the

complex processes and relations within

architectural design

THROUGH

development and application

of a framework for exploration of the topic

BASED ON - the interplay between

1) review of contemporary literature/research

2) workshops and discussions

3) broad case studies of building projectsAHUS project

ilsvika projects

APPROACHlimited scopediving

AIM

gain knowledge about interdisciplinary use of

BIM and its impact on central processes within

the design team -

especially the architects work and interactions

THROUGH

exploration of real life projects

BASED ON

application of framework for data collection,

analysis, pattern matching

WHY FOCUS ON INTERDISCIPLINARY USEOF BIM?

quite new and untested in practice

impact on processes and roles expected

SHORT ABOUT FRAMEWORK: FOCUS AND PURPOSE

framework needed as a support for

- getting overview of a complex topic

- carrying out, analyzing and comparing case-studies

- analyzing and organizing literature/theory

- narrowing and limiting scope/focus

the framework focuses on four central aspects of the architectural design

process

the generation of design solutions

communication

the evaluation of design solutions

decision-making
